there are now more than 260 million people who are insured in the united states. that's about 5 million more than in 2010. great news. for the first time in four years the number of people with health insurance actually increased. that's partly due to the law enabling young adults to stay on their parents' insurance until they're 26. today, an extra 540,000 young adults are insured because of that provision. but will that convince people in swing states like colorado that obama-care was, in fact, a good idea. here with me to discuss that swing state is david sirota. he co-hosts the "run down," a radio talk show in denver. glad to have you back inside "the war room." >> thanks for having me. >> jennifer: you bet. pleasure' onyou're on this radio show, you're listening to people, have you heard people talk about obama-care kids staying on their parents insurance. >> it's a huge problem. it's a national problem on the local level. people are not all that psyched by the care of obama-care and president obama's healthcare bill is not necessarily popular. but the tenant
